| Abstract
|
:
|
"The International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme (IBDP) is a respected qualification, gaining increasing currency around the world, and has been adopted by a wide variety of schools, both public and private. In the UK, growing dissatisfaction with the A-level system has led to an intense debate about alternative qualifications, and in many schools IBDP courses have been introduced alongside conventional A-level courses. The IBDP offers students: breadth of study; independent research skills; rigorous academic standards; recognition of achievement in extra-curricular activities." "This accessible introduction to the IBDP takes a balanced look at the pros and cons of the qualification, and features a wealth of advice from those involved in teaching and implementing it in schools. Providing comparative material on how IBDP courses differ from A-levels and a subject-by-subject account of best practice in teaching, this book offers a rich source of practical advice for teachers, school leaders and managers. Book jacket."--BOOK JACKET.
